Carson was beautiful in the air on the front somersault with a half-twist, but unfortunately he did put a hand down on the landing which is a 0.30 point deduction, which definitely will be pointed out by the Russian judge.

Not bad, honestly. I just can’t believe he managed to kept moving after flying through the air like this.
